"Should we occupy all of Charlemagne, it might provoke fierce reactions from other camps and could even escalate into one side having to quell rebellions in the occupied territories while simultaneously waging war with other nations. But if we simply disarm Charlemagne, ensuring it won't be entangled in conflicts with other countries in the future, all parties could accept that. No, they would have to accept it.

Politicians cannot go against this trend, nor can they present counterarguments or alternative plans. In the end, everyone will agree."
